  1. Modern ChemistryChapter 6 Chemical Bonding

  2. Chemical Bond • A link between atoms that results from the mutual attraction of their nuclei for electrons • Electrostatic attraction between proton and electron • Classified by the way the valence e- are distributed around nuclei of combined atoms

  3. Types of Bonds • Ionic • A chemical bond resulting from electrostatic attraction between cations and anions • In a pure ionic bond, one atom completely gives up one or more e- to another atom (rarely happens) • Illustration: A + B A+ + B-

  4. Covalent • Chemical bond resulting from the sharing of valence electrons between two atoms • In a pure covalent the electrons are shared equally between the two atoms (called nonpolar covalent) • Most covalent result in the electrons being shared unequally between atoms (called polar covalent)

  5. No bond is completely ionic and is rarely completely covalent • Bonds range between the two extremes • Degree of ionic or covalent estimated by comparing electronegativities (ionic character) • Greater the difference, the more ionic the bond • Range of 1.71—4.0 considered ionic • Examples: Cs + F 4.0 ( F electroneg.) - .7 (Cs electroneg) = 3.3 Ionic bond formed Cs becomes cation, F becomes anion

  6. Covalent bonds occur if the difference is less than 50% • A bond between 2 identical atoms is completely covalent (BrINClHOF) • Types of covalent • Nonpolar • A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are shared equally by bonded atoms, with a resulting balanced distribution of electrical charge • Occur with a 0% to 5% ionic character • Range of difference falls between 0-0.3

  7. Polar • Pole= unequal distribution of charge • Polar covalent bond is a bond where united atoms have an unequal attraction for the shared electrons • Occur between 5%-~50% ionic character • Range of difference ~.3 -1.7

  8. Examples • H to H 2.1 -2.1= 0 nonpolar covalent bond • H to Cl 3.0 -2.1= 0.9 polar covalent bond Because Cl is more electronegative, it has a stronger attraction for the e-, thus an uneven pull of electrons occurs—however e- still shared Uneven sharing causes a partial positive, partial negative pole

  9. Metallic Bonding • In a liquid or solid state, metals readily give up electrons • When only other metal atoms are around, electrons are not accepted and held, they are free to move • Free moving electrons called an electron sea—reason for metallic properties of luster, malleability, ductility, and conductivity

  10. Quick Trick • Polar covalent and nonpolar covalent bonding most readily occurs between nonmetals • Ionic most readily occurs between metals and nonmetals • Metallic occurs between metals

  11. Why do atoms bond? • Atoms will bond in order to lower their potential energy. • Atoms strive to reach an octet by bonding (ie: can take on the configuration of a noble gas)

  12. Determine the electronegativity difference, bond type, and more electronegative element with respect to the following atoms. • H and F • Br and Br • Al and S • Na and S • At and Cl • Ba and O • Si and O • Cr and Cl • Fe and I • K and Br
